*the calendar of saints is a ‘traditional christian method’ of organizing a ‘liturgical year’ by associating each ‘day’ with 1 or more ‘saints’ and referring to the day as the ‘feast day’ (or feast of said ‘saint’)*
.
(the word “feast” in this context does not mean “a large meal, typically a celebratory one”, but instead “an annual religious celebration, a day dedicated to a particular saint”)
(the system arose from the early christian custom of commemorating each martyr annually on the date of his or her death, or birth into heaven, a date therefore referred to in latin as the martyr’s dies natalis (“day of birth“))
(in the ‘eastern orthodox church’, a calendar of saints is called a “menologion”)
.
(‘menologion may also mean a set of ‘icons’ on which ‘saints’ are depicted in the order of the dates of their ‘feasts’, often made in ‘2 panels’)
